Low Back Pain

Living with LOW BACK PAIN

If you feel a deep, aching, burning, or shooting pain in your lower back; if the pain radiates from your back down to your legs; or if you feel numbness or tingling in your legs, you may be suffering from chronic low back pain (CLBP).  Although there are pain medicaitons that can help with the pain, they often carry unwanted side effects.  As a result, more research is still needed into other treament options for CLBP.

Local doctors are evaluating an investigational medication to determine how well it relleves pain in people living with moderate to severe CLBP.

Would I be eligible to particpate in this study?

To pre-qualify for this study, you must:

* Be 18 years of age or older

* Experience moderate to severe CLBP

* Have been on a consistent, daily regimen of pain medication for CLBP for at least three months

* Be willing to discontinue your current pain medicaion

Qualified participants will receive study-related medical evaluations and the study medication at no cost.

Help Us Improve Flu Vaccination For Children

Is your child 2-17 years of age?

We are looking for children to take part in the CHIP (ChildHood Influenza Program) Study, a clinical research study looking at an investigational flu vaccine.  More than 2000 children will be taking part.

Your child will need to visit the study center 3-4 times over the course of 6-8 months.  Doses of the vaccine will be given by nasal spray (a spray into the nose), not by injection, and a small amount of blood will need to be taken on two occasions to check your child's immune response.
